Current Weight= 266.4 lb

Total Lost = 53.6 lbs

This week was a loss! YAY

So, there are a few events coming up very soon! Passover will be starting this monday! How exciting ( but not really...it has got to be one of my least favorite jewish holidays..)!

Then later on in the week I'll finally be getting my galbladder surgery out of the way. It's been a long time coming. I'll be glad to have it done and start recovering already.

My birthday was great, I finally got to spend a birthday home with my family! The last four years I've been in College and my birthday is close to finals and all. :P So this year it was a bit different. 

The secret birthday box was opened!

Crunchies! "I'll be having these responsibly.." lol

I wonder how many people have tried these before? Milk chocolate with a honey comb inside!

Thanks :) 

For dinner we all went out to Bonefish Grill

I got the Lily's Chicken

it has artichoke hearts in top aswell as some delicious goat cheese...

I ended up not having all the goat cheese..but from what I tasted it was enough and very good!

Bonefish Grill gifted me a birthday chocolate :) Thanks!
there are strawberries sprinkled on top

I had a great 24th Birthday :)

+ loss this week !

Goodnight

Weigh-in!! Secret Birthday Present!!!?

This Week = +1.0 lbs 

Current Weight= 267.6 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 52.4 lbs

What  a busy week(s)!!

Alrighty, so this past week was a gain. Do I want to elaborate on my gain? 

Other than the fact that I snacked a lot? Nope! I'm 100% sure that's why I gained!

SO NOW...

 It's now almost time for my next weigh-in!!!

Less snacking this week (yes, check!)

I don't have too much to update on  weigh-loss wise.

It's my 24th Birthday today! :) 

Hello Spring !!:)

I've been waiting more than a week to open this secret surprise birthday present!

Thanks to a good friend! :)

I've been using an ancient fossil of a phone for manyyyy years now, my family finally upgraded. I have a phone that I can take video and pictures with :) (big deal? yes! -to me!! :)  yay)  So much more convenient! I was thinking of getting a new camera that would record and be more compact and convenient for everyday. So, instead now I have a phone that can do it all. Hello 2013 goodbye 1990's!

Anyways, this time next week I'll be having my surgery! :) That's the next one!
Then after that..I'll be doing some healing and back to regular :)

Happy Spring everyone!

Weigh-In Update & a little REWIND

This Week = +1.0 lbs 

Current Weight= 267.6 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 52.4 lbs

Alrightyyy. Another gain..+2.8 if I add up the total between these last two weeks. So, that's super awesome fun! I do this with a lot of things. I start doing well and the next thing I know is I'm off track and hardly trying (but maybe more like  tricking myself into believing I'm trying?).

I know what works, when I want to have a good week...

So- Why is it so hard to stick with what works and what I know is good?

It feels like self sabotage!

So, I took it back to the beginning  I think I need a bit of a reminder. I'm glad I've saved all this reading material!

I guess that's what they are here for? 

I'm now finishing another booklet ( weight record books). It feels like I JUST started a new one  few weeks ago. I guess 15 (normally 16 in a booklet but one of the boxes were skipped) went by without me realizing. Maybe it's not the best way to go about thinking? But I looked at my 1st record on the booklet I'm ending now... I'm seeing I lost -9 lbs in this entire book. That's with the ups and downs...Averaging = -0.6 a week.

But looking back now, most of those weigh-ins are - not + weeks!

I'm trying to get my PS2 to ply my workout DVDs... I'm not sure what's up with my PS2 :(. I'll workout with one of those this afternoon.

This is why I Love Spare Change!

My grandma gave me a ton of pennies when I was younger....
of course I kept saving and adding to the pennies..

 This past weekend I decide it's time to see how much my collection adds up to!
Plus the drawer I was storing all my jars and coin purses in was being weighed down it was bending the drawer.. (opps!). D:

Aww! look how sad Lady looks D: lol she is so silly sometimes... 

So, next up was the trip to the bank!

the bag was pretty much all pennies so when I got the total of $61.00 I was surprised as heck!

I'm not trying to brag...but wow I'm SO SURPRISED! Very cool.

I kinda have a new love for change now!

Everyone saving jars and coin purses of small change... go chash that in for a good surprise! :)

The poof I made the last time I was feeling crafty!

Finally a picture...

The place I wanted to hang it initially turned out to be a bit of a challenge, so for now it's over my bed :P

last night: lemon chicken with honey mustard sauce and a flax seed crust!

Some had breadcrumbs and some didn't!

these were thin chicken cuts..
I also added some green onion on top. 

This was the honey mustard I used to lightly coat my chicken with.. It was a mixture of this dressing, flaxseeds, and paprika.

Thanks to some  a couple of my friends, I was told to try the Arnold Palmer Arizona. I 1st tried the awesome ¢99 cans (you can get one at a gas station anywhere)  Oh my :} I loved it! It was very refreshing! 

Good Afternoon Everyone!
Here's to a new better week :)

This week was a gain :( I think I went sugar/ sweets crazy! But that's out of my system now. I'm looking forward to a great upcoming week! :)

Atm, I'm looking up some recipes I could make for my dad's birthday night. His 63rd birthday is on Wed the 27th. :) I'll be making a nice dinner home and later on in the week we'll all go out as a family.

I'm also doing this while I'm waiting to watch the new episode of Girls on HBO.

lovvvee this show,  Lena Dunham (the creator) is a huge inspiration.

About to head out to the gym! I havn't gone for a while, on friday I felt as though my dad had given me his cold. That afternoon I started feeling my usual self again... uhh???  I'm glad I didn't get a cold, but what the heck!?

This monday one of our family friends had a family member pass, so the funeral was monday. The destination was very far away..so the day was spent traveling to and from. 

I'll be going back now! :)

Good afternoon

My Happy Valentines! & last weeks late update!

I love homemade decor :)  these ren't mind..but they should be!

This was really my 1st year actually doing something special for Valentines!  I went to go see Beautiful Creatures, in theaters.

My date was very sweet and gave me a dozen beautiful red roses and a heart shapes box of chocolates.... ( I never really mentioned to this person that I am having issues with chocolate atm or that I'm trying to be conscious of what I eat...otherwise I think it would have been different.)

I never actually pay much attention to Valentines... no biggie! So thankfully I never felt any kind of bitterness towards the day.  This Valentines was a nice change, even though it was  pretty basic night out. :) I hadn't opened the chocolates for a good 3 days (since I can't / shouldn't really be having any with the gallbladder issue) But after I did open them they didn't last thatt long. D: ahhh....

Last weeks Weigh-In Update!

This Week = +1.4lbs 

Current Weight= 267 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 52 lbs

good night!

Weigh-In & Workout DVDs!

This Week = -2.5 lbs 

Current Weight= 266 lb

Start Weight = 320 lbs 

Total Lost = 54 lbs

So, at some point this week it occurred to me I'm officially well into the 60's (266). I think 269or 8 were too close to the 70's, where I've been stuck at for a while. So, that's kinda super awesome to adjust to these new numbers!

One of my buddies from WW meetings was giving away some of her workout DVDs, since nobody wanted them... I took them off her hands. hahha

hahha I havn't done these yet but I plan to this weekend :)

hahah I never thought I'd own anything that had to do anything with Richard Simmons.. don't know why. Haha what a cutie!

These I made for my parents..since they requested it after dinner 

Since I'm not having chocolate atm I decided to make a fruit smoothie!

This morning I got my consultation and I'll have a scheduled date for my gallbladder being removed by monday. When I spoke to the Dr.  he said I'd be out the same day! :)

This was a late update... AHH! my weigh-in is on Saturday morning.

I'm feeling so bloated and tired (the gym helped a bit) but I don't know what the scale will be looking like. Normally I have a scale at home that is 3 lbs. off from the WW scale but the battery for that is dead.

O:
we will see!
Good night & TGIF!!!
